He goes through the motion of the game, but his mind drifts away from his hand as he exchanges his own cards.

After a moment, though, Brock's words really sink in and he's not sure what to say. I'm sorry seems like a weak consolation. He can't imagine Steve would've heard a word of it after he'd realized he'd been fighting off Bucky on that bridge.

He lets the moment hang, lets his look linger and doesn't bother to hide the empathy there. He'd like to think they don't need to posture while they're showing each other their festering wounds.
